FARO® first to bring simple as-built 3D cloud-based data management to BIM, Architecture, and Construction Information Management applications
For applications within the fields of BIM, architecture, and construction information management (CIM), user-friendly access to reliable as-is information of buildings, plants and construction sites is essential. Users also need immediate access to this data at the office, on the job-site or in transit.
SCENE WebShare Cloud 2.0 provides easy-to-use 3D viewing of as-built data over the Internet. No dedicated software or hardware is needed and it can be used on almost any modern mobile device, including tablet computers and smart phones. With an Internet connection and a web browser being the only access requirements, SCENE WebShare Cloud provides users with the mobility and accessibility that is required to support their applications within
By having real 3D as-built data available at any point in time, independent from where a user sits, SCENE WebShare Cloud 2.0 delivers a number of measurable benefits to FARO's customers. All project partners have access to identical 3D as-built data. The use of incomplete or outdated drawings can be avoided and by having the right data at one's fingertips, decisions can be made easier, faster and with more certainty. Whenever engineers, builders and non-CAD-experts need to collaborate, using life-like point cloud data as a means of communication has proven to be more intuitive and less prone to misinterpretations than abstract CAD models. SCENE WebShare Cloud 2.0 provides the clarity of true 3D viewing to understand and analyze complex on-site conditions. This enables customers to virtually immerse themselves into an existing environment and offers a more direct way of understanding on-site conditions. With its unique contributions, SCENE WebShare Cloud 2.0 will ultimately help reduce expensive rework and project delays due to outdated data throughout the whole building life-cycle.
"More than two years ago, FARO established SCENE WebShare Cloud as the most innovative cloud-based product for sharing 3D Documentation data," stated Dr.
WebShare Cloud is closely integrated with FARO's desktop software SCENE. As a cloud-based service all updates and enhancements are automatically available to any user.
